Wow. Looks like a rough way to start your week. Rob looks like he may be getting closer to that tube buggy he's been talking about.
It's Hammer Time!

Cool pictures. 😎 I think Fred's right. You guys are going to have trailer queen tube buggies in no time. 😀
Justin SubscriberJustin SubscriberI just talked to John and Rob. They ran Outer Limits today and added more dents 😲 , and Rob broke another hub. I couldn't afford to keep up with them! 😂
JohnDF Member Joined: July 2003JohnDF started this Member Joined: July 2003Yup...we ran Outer Limits today. What a blast 😀
Rob gernaded a hub into a dozen little peices. We had to chisel it out...took an hour. We ran the rest of the trail without difficulty, except winching the first big waterfall. We did add a little more carnage. I dented both front quarter panels, bent a tube door and ripped of a tail light. Rob dented the other side of his hood (both sides match), bent a tube door, dented front quarter panel, destroyed a hub, and dented the other rear quarter panel. We both walked up the last waterfall without spotting 😁 The traik was more tore up than last year. The first waterfall was brutal with huge holes.
Tomorrow we are going to run Highway 20...let's see what else we can dent 🙄I used to wheel a lot. . .

JohnDF Member Joined: July 2003JohnDF started this Member Joined: July 2003Well, we're not running the easiest trails and we're definately not taking the safest lines 😳
I'll post again tomorrow after Highway 20 and let you know what parts fall off of Rob's Jeep 😂I used to wheel a lot. . .

JohnDF Member Joined: July 2003JohnDF started this Member Joined: July 2003Fun day. We ran Highway 20 this morning. Highway 20 is a technical trail with lots of waterfalls and rock hopping. It's a pretty short trail though, but worth the drive. We zipped through it really fast and before we knew it we were out and didn't even take any pictures 😢
Since it was still early, we went and ran Sledgehammer. Sledge gave us more problems than any of the other trails. It was really tore up. I got stuck three times and Rob got stuck once. 😢 We a tore a break line for our only carnage[s] of the day. We got back and packed up the rigs, loaded the Jeeps, and headed back to town. We will be leaving in the morning. We got to run all the trails we wanted; Wrecking Ball, Sledgehammer, Outer Limits, North Jackhammer, and Highway 20.
Overall, my favorite trail is still Outer Limits. The hardest trail was Sledge this year. The most damage came from Wrecking Ball and the most stucks came from Sledge. Not camping in the desert added a nice touch. Not looking forward to the long drive home tomorrow, but it will be nice to get home.
Now for a few more pictures...here's me on Sledge 😏

Is that an early MORE Bombproof motormount? I had one break once. They use to only weld the uprights to the tubing for the bushing on the outside. They started welding the inside too, then started putting a gusset between the uprights.
